It is a member of the Texas Association of Builders.
Texas does not issue a state roofing license, so we verify companies the way homeowners actually can: confirming insurance coverage, checking RCAT (Roofing Contractors Association of Texas) status, and checking city or county registration where the local jurisdiction requires one. Every credential below links to the actual issuing organization's own public lookup — don't just take our checkmark for it. Always ask for a current certificate of insurance before signing any contract.

Confirm this yourself: ask the company for their certificate of insurance (COI). Note that RCAT's Licensed Roofing Contractor credential (CRRL, RRL or CRL) is earned and held by a named individual at a company, not by the business itself, which is why we name that person above where we know it; Texas issues no company roofing license at all. RCAT and NTRCA status can be checked in their own public directories (RCAT, NTRCA) — use the "Licensed"/"Accredited" filter to see more than plain membership. GAF's contractor verification tool and Owens Corning's Texas locator confirm those tiers directly; CertainTeed doesn't offer a comparable self-serve lookup, so ask to see that certificate in person. BBB accreditation and rating are on bbb.org. Houston's own published registered-roofer list is years out of date, so it isn't cited here at all — confirm registration by contacting the city directly. Corpus Christi's STAR program has its own online contractor registry — for any other city or county registration claim, confirm directly with that jurisdiction's permit office.
Certifications
Texas Association of Builders memberCompany-reported — ask to see the certificate
Does Texas require roofers or general contractors to hold a state license?
No. Texas has no statewide license requirement for general contractors or roofers. Homeowners should instead confirm a contractor's insurance, bonding, and standing with organizations like the Better Business Bureau.
How can I verify Canizales Construction's insurance before hiring?
Ask for a current certificate of general liability insurance, and if subcontractors like roofers or electricians will be on site, confirm their insurance too, then verify with the insurer directly.
Is Canizales Construction BBB Accredited?
Its BBB profile shows an A+ rating but states the business is not a BBB Accredited Business. Accreditation and the letter rating are two separate things: accreditation is an opt-in status a business pays for, while the rating is assigned by BBB based on complaint history regardless.
Since Canizales Construction is a general contractor, who actually does the roofing work?
The company describes working with licensed roofers, electricians, plumbers, and HVAC technicians on its projects. Ask specifically who will perform and be responsible for the roofing portion of your job.
Do I need a permit for roof or remodeling work in Beaumont?
Texas has no statewide building code, so permitting rules are set city by city. Confirm directly with the City of Beaumont's building or permits department whether your project needs a permit.
Jefferson County is on the Gulf Coast. What is WPI-8 and does it apply here?
Jefferson County is one of the Texas Windstorm Insurance Association's 14 first-tier coastal counties. If TWIA windstorm coverage applies to your property, ask whether roof work will meet WPI-8 windstorm certification standards.
What should I get in writing before signing a construction or roofing contract?
Get the full scope of work, materials, total cost, payment schedule, estimated timeline, and any manufacturer material warranty plus the contractor's workmanship warranty in writing.
How long does a roof replacement typically take within a larger remodeling project?
A standalone residential re-roof commonly takes one to a few days depending on size, material, and weather; ask the contractor for a project-specific schedule if roofing is part of a bigger job.
What does membership in the Texas Association of Builders indicate?
It shows the company participates in the state's builder trade association, which offers education and networking to members; it is not itself a license, certification, or insurance guarantee.
Why isn't a company website listed for Canizales Construction?
The domain associated with the company did not resolve during research (a DNS lookup failure), so no live company website could be confirmed; contact the company by phone to verify current details.
